The adidas NMD R1 Black/Gum is a classic colorway of the heritage-inspired lifestyle design. Taking cues from 1980s running shoes and applying it to the build of the NMD R1, the sleek shoe dons a flexible yet durable black mesh upper with tonal Three Stripes branding on the mid-panel. Adidas swaps the mesh-based construction to a more concentrated material on the heel. A tonal plastic adidas heel cup with Trefoil branding completes the upper. White Boost cushioning technology with two black EVA plugs on the midsole provide optimal all-day comfort. A classic gum outsole completes this essential and versatile colorway of the NMD.
